Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

[einahpets]

So I recieved my copy of Harry Potter #7 roughly 24 hours ago and have completed it a half hour ago.  Personally I found it a fitting end, and after looking at all the clues left in the previous books you kinda had a feeling what was going on throughout the book.  Which I liked.

But who else besides me found that Epilog was a lot like a cliche fanfiction?  I mean it wasn't bad, but come ON!  Naming your kids after your dead parents is fanfiction rule #1 for any Ginny Harry relationship.  
Also this shoutout goes out to everyone who told me I was daft for thinking Harry was going to survive.   HAAAAAA!  I was right you not believers!  
I wonder what ever happened to his Firebolt.  I was thinking about his broomstick for hundreds of pages, I had to stop myself from thinking about it and just let myself believe it was eventually returned or he got a new one. 

Oh Fred, I hope Weasley Wizard Wheezes lives on ... 

... I'm still angry at my dad for telling me Hermione was going to die, so for most of the book I was convinced something was going to happen and was concentrating on that rather than the story.  He should take his own advice and not believe everything the New York Times tells you and then blab to your daughter.  Jackass.

Actually, somehow I "found out" that Hermione was going to die, so in the Malfoy house scene I was FREAKING out.

But yes. Epilogue was SO cheesy. "Albus Severus!" Ugggghhh. However, Teddy Tonks? Kissing Bill and Fleur's daughter? Awesome.

Teddy is such a kickass name. I totally love all the pairings popping up!

Now I feel like I have a giant void in my life. After 8 years of dedication it feels strange to say it has ended. Though after reading it, I'm kinda excited to see the 7th book put on the silver screen.

Oops. I meant Teddy Lupin. But yeah, I have that void too... I'm watching the movies now. I don't know what to do with myself!!

And yes. These next two movies will be the shit.

No, no Hermione lives. It's just that my dad planted that thought in my brain before reading the book and I kept waiting for Hermione to kick the bucket and when she didn't I had an "Oh" moment.
